Hello!!

I'm trying to plan ahead for my daughters upcoming Volleyball Tournament.

For the weekend I will be spending most of my days, in a large gym/convention center setting. Concession stand food will be available with plenty of walking tacos, nachos, hotdogs, etc,
I plan on taking some fresh fruit, nuts & protein bars to help ease the temptation.

But does anyone have some other snack ideas that they may have? I am NOT permitted to take in a cooler, so my "stash" will have to be in my bag.
Also looking for any other suggestions for not sabotaging my calorie intake for these tournament weekends. We will be staying in a hotel & eating out.

Thanks for your help

    Cooked eggs, chicken & pickles! :) low calorie, high protein and so good!

    There are some light cheese as well but it's already a step-up in terms of fat & calories... better stick with the veggies as advised by cecsav1 or chicken.

    I buy a lot of pre-packaged low calorie snacks to take to work each day - dried mangos (20g pack is 70 cal), choc dipped fruit bars @ 90 cals, small snack bag of sweet & salty flavoured popcorn @ 96 cals, snack bag of mini rice crackers @ 60-70cals, cocktail sausages/cheerios @ 50cals each! :)
